Future of Festivals is the first and only festival network exhibition – a declaration of love to festival makers in all their diversity.
Our mission: we want to bring people from the festival industry, service providers, experts and volunteers together.
We believe in the evolution of festivals. In panels, workshops and key notes we want to develop innovative and visionary answers to the questions that the challenges of the future will bring up.
Let’s network. Let’s write the future of festivals together.
EXHIBITION
Grandeur reportedly comes from within. That‘s why we’re emphasising on our inside area. Covering 6300 m², this is where the festival industry is presenting its strength. Close to 150 exhibitors from far and wide are showing how to sleep at festivals prospectively, improve them technically, which marketing tools you cannot go without and how to organise festivals more sustainably.
CONGRESS
»Something to talk about« – our congress is a two-day industry meetup. Here you are connecting, sharing, and inspiring each other. More than 100 national and international speakers are feeding you with visionary topics for new ideas and concepts. The boundaries of your horizon are supposed to melt and re-arrange. Our motto: Think diff erently, re-think, think new.
CAMPUS
Talents exhibits the love and passion within the festival industry. This is where event management assistants, engineers, volunteers, service providers and festival organisers are getting in touch. That goes for old stagers as well as for those looking for new challenges and wanting to set foot in the industry. Various discussion panels, workshops and keynote speeches are framing the meetups.
